Sump Pump Installation, Maintenance & Repairs Itta Bena Mississippi


Did you know? Sump pumps will fix most basement flooding and dripping problems as they are designed to eliminate water from basements and crawlspaces.

What is a Sump Pump?

A sump pump is a submersible pump that sits at the bottom of a sump pit, which is usually installed at the most affordable sump pump servicepoint in your basement or crawl area. Ground water surrounding your house's structure is carried into a boundary drain system set up at the base of the foundation. Water finds its method into the perforated drainpipes and is rapidly diverted to the sump pit. The sump pump, which is activated by a float switch, gets rid of the water by pumping it to the closest storm drain, dry well or detention pond. A sump pump switches on just when water inside the sump pit reaches a pre-determined level.

Many brand-new houses are equipped with sump pumps but older houses can be retrofitted with a sump system to prevent basement flooding. Our Midwest Plumbers plumbers are experts at sump pump installation and repair work.

Sump Pump Installation

Sump pumps can be hard-wired into a home's electrical system or be plugged into an outlet. Numerous sump pumps are equipped with a battery backup to guarantee that the pump will work when the power is out, such as during an extreme storm when it's specifically important that water is pumped far from your house.

Sump Pump Maintenance

Test your sump pump regularly to make sure it will operate when the next big rainstorm occurs. Test it by putting a pail of water into the sump pit. The pump must turn on, remove the water from the pit and shut itself off in a matter of seconds. Ensure that the float and the check valve move easily.

To clean your sump pit, eliminate any dirt, sand, gravel and other particles to increase the pump's performance and prolong its life. Ensure that the discharge line opening is without obstructions so that water can be pumped through the line and from your basement or crawlspace.
